    They looked at the Apple hardware, most of which is anodized aluminium, then copied the on-screen color.

    There already is a colour hack. It requires you to sneak into your sister's bedroom and to nick a few of her nail varnishes. You now have the luxury of brushing any colour you like on any button you want. Soon you will lovingly nickname your controller spotted dick.

    Let the varnish dry and voila, you're the coolest kid on the block.
